But, just because it's a designated day to spend that cash does not mean we're not on the lookout for some major steals! Below are seven of the hottest summer trends at two different price levels.

Will you splurge or will you steal a great deal?

1. Pom Pom Gladiator Sandals

These pom pom-adorned strappy sandals are going to be huge this summer. They're colorful, comfy and perfect for a day at the pool.
